All depends on how soon things get here.
Shouldn't take me more than a day to fab up the brake lines.
Not more than a day to get the engine back in and wired up.

A bit more to deal with a few other little quirks and then to fire her up.

I've started putting some of the other requirements in as i prep for the brake lines.
Now when all that is complete time to assemble crew, which might take a few more day. Very anxious to see this one hit the road, myself.

I would paint the shell, if it hasn't been done yet, so u can paint the engine bay to match the whole car. Colour choice? I call charcoal grey from the Evo9 MR

I painted the engine bay black. Easier to Fake the wire tuck etc.

Color Choice:

Either Gun grey like the evo or SLR 722 Crystal Amantium Grey

i'm not spraying the car yet. that will be left for when i'm finished with a few more things. I'm getting it up and running to break in the engine and do the base tune before i put it down again to finish the break upgrades

Cool. Another nice colour would be that bluish colour from the C6 carbon vette with a black roof or the grey/silver from the new Scion Tc.

Scion colour is called Cement. Lol, yes it looks like the grey of cement. Cool colour, especially if you're going with blk, gunmetal or a bright coloured (bright green, purple, blue, yellow) wheel set.

Almost done with the brakes, Been a real busy and hectic past few weeks so i have basically stalled working on the car. The garage has also been busy so it was on the back burner.

The brake lines will be done soon enough and hopefully will get the beast fired up on the new motor soon

You know I was thinking.. If you did sharper bends on the break lines it would neater. I don't believe those lines kink easily.
